The Hon. Tony Abbott MP, Prime Minister and The Hon. Bruce Billson MP, Minister for Small Business announce the extension of unfair contract term protections to small businesses

The extension of unfair contract term protections to small businesses like newsagents has been one of the most important reform issues the ANF has been working on and we are very pleased that the Minister has announced they are going ahead with this important reform.

The ANF has some concerns, however, with what the ultimate detail of the Bill will look like and we have been in contact with the Minister’s office a number of times this week to discuss these leading up to today’s announcement. The Minister understands our concerns and we look forward to seeing the detail of the Bill.
